I suggest BareBones consider moving their data store out of the

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, Yojimbo uses Core
Data, which is a subsystem supplied by the OS for precisely the
sort of data storage needs that Yojimbo has. The fact that Core
Data uses sqlite is an implementation detail and is, by design,
abstracted away from Core Data clients.
Since Core Data is a fundamental part of the OS, we leave it to
Apple to make sure that it plays nicely with other relevant OS
components. Since Time Machine is brand new and there are still
lots of angles to figure out, I have every confidence that in the
long term, Time Machine will evolve as necessary to accommodate the
needs of Core Data clients.
From and uses perspective, Yojimbo is clearly missing the need for
integration with state of the art backup available in Leopard -
files that are changed are backed up. I am really not interested
in whether you built Yobjimbo with CoreData and XML and C# and some
thread pools or whatever. Leopard has been out a long time.

Leopard has been out "a long time" ? Less than a year is not a long
time, unless you are a toddler.
I suspect you did not read Rich's reply carefully, or you did not
understand it. Bare Bones built Yojimbo on top of Apple's
technologies. It's reasonable for them to expect that Apple's
subsequent technologies would be compatible or will be eventually made
to be compatible.
If you aren't interested in reading the answer, why did you ask the
question in the first place? You were technologically prescriptive in
your question, and then you get angry because their answer is explicit?
I think that Rich's response was appropriate. You are starting to
sound like you want a pony.
Thanks
